The rd-bin directory also has web pages that need to be in the apache
document root to read them.

If you still have rd-bin.conf in /etc/apache2/rivendell then its out
side of the apache configeration hierarchy. So as far as apache is
concerned rd does not exist so there wont be rd error messages in the
log.
You could move things but that may break rd elsewhere so I would
personly start again.
To save confusion later on remove the broken unused directories
/etc/apache2/rivendell and /var/www/rd-bin.
Goto rd source
Make clean
./configure --libexecdir=/var/www/html/rd-bin --
sysconfdir=/etc/apache2/sites-available
make
make install
make sure rd-bin.conf is in /etc/apache2/sites-available and it is also
symlinked to /etc/apache2/sites-enabled theres 2 lines in rd-bin.conf
that should point to /var/www/html/rd-bin.
Restart apache2 and rd and try again.

I remember reading quite some time ago that apache2 by default for
security reasons will not look out side of its set root directory.
In debian 9.4 its document root is /var/www/html
It also looks like it only checks its include directories for *.conf
files so It wont find /etc/apache2/rivendell/rd-bin.conf
I had it wrong at the start so deleted the directories files from the
wrong paths and recompiled.
configure --libexecdir=/var/www/html/rd-bin --
sysconfig=/etc/apache/sites-available
make install wont over write conf files so check rd-bin.conf in sites-
available points to, in my case /var/www/html/rd-bin
rd-bin.conf is symlinked from /etc/apache2/sites-available to
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled
Restart apache2 and rd.
Now import works.

[RDD] Compiling on fedora 28

[Gary Hodder]

Hi all,

fedora 28 fully up to date
rd-2.19.2

sysconfdir=/etc/httpd/conf.d --disable-docbook

So I went back to rd-2.19.0 that worked before now has the same result.
The only difference is updates and now i'm using jack.

With a bit of digging found pow10 man page

These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.  Since glibc
2.27, the use of these functions in new programs is no longer
supported.

rpm -q glibc
glibc-2.27-30.fc28.x86_64
glibc-2.27-30.fc28.i686

Thanks
Gary.

If apache is not told to look in the rivendell directory under apache
then it wont find the rd-bin.conf.
I just used --libexecdir=/usr/local/libexec
The configure script was smart enough fo find the apache sysconfig.
It put it in /etc/apache2/sites-available
Also rd-bin.conf was symlinked from /etc/apache/sites-available to
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled.
This is on debian 9.4

Sorry Rob you get 2 copies, didn't check the reply to.

Done that and qt3 compiles ok.
Got through to running rdadmin and it says cannot connect to mysql
server.
In /usr/local/qt3/plugins/sqldriver/libqsqlmysql.so
Is this the correct name and location for the mysql driver that rd
looks for?

Thanks

You could also use a ftp server, some servers allow you to map a user
to a directory other than the servers root directory.
This user could be mapped to the dropbox directory.
He did say using the local IPv4 address, so its on the internal
network.

Hi all,

have compiled riv 2.17.0 on a new install of fedora 27.
After opening rdairplay add song the play/stop buttons are not there.
Also in rdlibrary edit song edit markers the window with the waveform
is missing as well.
Thats what of found so far. Is there something missing from my system
when compiling riv?

Hi Rob,

did that and all went well until rdadmin cannot connect to mysql
database.
Duh qt3 does not compile drivers by default.
Wrestling with finding the qt3 mysql driver source, I think Luke has

Hi Matthew,

I had a similar problem when installing on fedora 25 when compiled with
configure --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib64/qt-3.3.
I started again with configure --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib64/qt-3.3 --
libexecdir=/var/www/html/rd-bin
specifying a libexec directory and placing rd-bin in apache's root
directory worked for me.

Re: [RDD] Configuring Jack For v2.10.2 Appliance

I'm doing some experimenting with the jack server, and attempting to add
Rivendell to Jack's client list.

My goal:  send RDairplay out to stereo_tool for final processing, then
stream to shoutcast (all via jack).  Here's what I have so far.  This is
a Rivendell Appliance v2.10.2 - CentOS 6.6 (final).

(1) With Jack running, rivendell is listed as active in the Patchbay,
but doesn't appear in the output/input lists (only system and midi
through).  Attempting to add rivendell here doesn't look right.

(2)  Clicking on Connect only turns the button to grey and does nothing.

(3)  I've only gotten this far by taking my sound cards out of the
RDAalsaConfig utility listing ( as Jack won't start with them in the
alsa list.

(4)  I checked to ensure the jack session was intact in the rd config
file.  But since I'm having to start jack manually I must not know about
a startup file somewhere (as jack is not included in a startup listing)
aparently left as an option for the install.

(5)  In the Manage Hosts  Jack area I have checked the box for jack to
start with this host.   In Manage Hosts  Audio Resources I don't see
jack or either of my sound cards, even though I selected the alsa driver
in the jack setup.

This is likely something simple I haven't come across yet.  I'd just
like to plug the processing in before sending this to the stream/license
service.

Perhaps someone might have a moment to suggest the critical pieces of
this puzzle.  Thank you to the Rivendell team for an excellent product!

Thanks!

Hi Eugene,

jack needs to be run as the same username as RD.
If you are starting jack manually from a terminal su to the rd username 
and start jack and restart rd.

 Hi, Simon. 
 
 It's possible to run Rivendell on a laptop, but I've only been able to do it 
 using Ubuntu and the Tryphon distributions. 
 
 The Appliance CD runs CentOS and it doesn't recognize some of the hardware on 
 two different laptops I have (one Dell, one a Compal whitebox).
 
 The big concern is that whatever Linux distro you're using can recognize your 
 sound card and CD player.
 
 If you don't care about the current contents of your laptop or PC, I suggest 
 you download the Appliance CD from the Paravel site and install Rivendell 
 from 
 there. (I've tried both the V1 and V2 CDs and neither one would allow me to 
 install Rivendell alongside any other operating system. YMMV)
 
 If the Appliance CD doesn't work for you then you'll need to enter the 
 interesting world of installing the Tryphon packages.
 
Hi,

Rivendell runs just fine on a Dell dual core laptop and Centos 6.4 but I
did compile from source.
But I will be moving back to Fedora when 20 comes out.

Add all your hostnames and ip's to the host file then edit nsswitch.conf
to be

hosts:  files dns (what-else-you-need)

The system will then look up the hostnames in the host file and will not
try to do a dns lookup.
If its not in the host file then the next step is to do a dns lookup.

Hi Brian,

you could add a GPIO card to the Rivendell machine and connect it to the
satellite receiver.
Then have it detect relay changes and send rml commands over the local
ethernet network to the remote machine.

Re: [RDD] OpenOB 2.3 release

[Gary Hodder]

 Being a little security conscious you should be firewalling the hell out of 
 the transmitter which leaves you with 3 obvious routes:
 
 1.  Set up a site to site VPN (doable but introduces latency and processing 
 cost)
 2.  Open the ports on the transmitter firewall (which to my mind is an 
 obvious way of getting your transmitter hijacked, you can mitigate with 
 passwords etc)
 3.  Have the transmitter pull from the station.
 
If you have fixed ip at each end you can allow a connection at the
transmitter site from your ip only, then next rule in iptables is to
drop all other connections on that port.
No security risk there unless they hack your isp and steel your ip.

Cheers
Gary.

Try /dev/ttyS0 and /dev/ttyS1

 I'm just not quite sure why RDAirPlay is sending data out for Serial1 on 
 Serial0.
 
 I have a macro cart set to SO Serial0 1!, then another line with SO Serial1 
 34! so as far as I can tell RDAirPlay should be sending it out the correct 
 serial port for each line.
 
 I have Windows Hyperterminal running on the end of Serial0 at the correct 
 baud so I can watch the output externally, but I'm getting the second line 
 destined for Serial1 also showing up on Serial0. So on the Windows box I get

Hi Alan,

I'm not near a machine so going by memory and it needs someone to clean
it up so you can better understand it.

The buttons on the joystick are the parts you are using and the device
is /dev/input/event?. Can be event2 event3 event4 etc.
Unplug joystick and look in /dev/input and see what events are there
Plug joystick back in and see what event has been created
Add this event? to gpio with full path restart rivendell daemons and it
should work until you reboot.
A reboot or the usb joystick being unplugged replugged will cause the
event number to change.

Below is a catch all for event matching your joystick buttons and
creates a device /dev/rivbutton1 that can be added to the gpio device.

Copy below to a file and call it 49-local.rules
BUS==usb, SYSFS{product}==Generic   USB  Joystick  ,
KERNEL==event**, NAME=rivbutton1

Sorry I forgotten where this file goes if Fred could please chime in
here.

List your usb devices and copy your usb joystick device and replace my
GenericUSB  Joystick   with yours and I think the spaces maybe
important.

Another thing I noted was cheap joysticks are not shielded. The usb hub
would occasionally disconnect then reconnect. I think this maybe the hub
trying to protect itself from electrical interference.
So build the button board into a good shielded box with good quality
shielded cables including the usb cable.

 Add this event? to gpio with full path restart rivendell daemons and it
 should work until you reboot.
 A reboot or the usb joystick being unplugged replugged will cause the
 event number to change.
 
 Below is a catch all for event matching your joystick buttons and
 creates a device /dev/rivbutton1 that can be added to the gpio device.
 
 Copy below to a file and call it 49-local.rules
 BUS==usb, SYSFS{product}==Generic   USB  Joystick  ,
 KERNEL==event**, NAME=rivbutton1
 
 Sorry I forgotten where this file goes if Fred could please chime in
 here.
 
Just remembered
/etc/udev/rules.d

 List your usb devices and copy your usb joystick device and replace my
 GenericUSB  Joystick   with yours and I think the spaces maybe
 important.
 
 Another thing I noted was cheap joysticks are not shielded. The usb hub
 would occasionally disconnect then reconnect. I think this maybe the hub
 trying to protect itself from electrical interference.
 So build the button board into a good shielded box with good quality
 shielded cables including the usb cable.
 
 Gary.

Re: [RDD] Log Editing - Anyway to Lock?

[Gary Hodder]

Hi all,

have a different idea, can another field be added to the database? This
field would be for rdlogedit.
If mylog was created by client1 at 10am and not edited by anyony the
field could say
mylog created by client1 10:00
If the log was open by client2 at 10:30
mylog open by client2 10:30
Client2 finishes editing at 10:40
mylog closed by client2 10:40

Rdlogedit would pole the database and you would know what logs are open,
being edited, what times they were edited and which are available to be
edited.
Just a thought.

Gary.

[RDD] rlm_facebook

[Gary Hodder]

Hi all,

tried adding rlm_facebook to rdairplay under configure now next. Added
rml_facebook.conf in /etc and configured it.
When trying to do a rivendell restart the daemons wont start.
Where in rivendell do I find the config with the now and next so I can
remove the facebook modules.
Tried deleting rml_facebook.rml and rml_facebook.conf but that didn't
work.
I dont want to reload and import 18000 songs.

Thanks
Gary.

Re: [RDD] Using Rivendell to Control Axia Element Board

 Hi All,
 
 
 I'm not sure if anyone has any experience with this, or
 if the hardware even allows it, but I was wondering if Rivendell has
 any support for controlling events on an Axia Element Board? In
 particular, has anyone found a way to pragmatically change the current
 profile on an Element using either a Rivendell Macro or some other
 software via the Livewire network? It would be really handy to be able
 to set the board to a specific profile on certain Rivendell events,
 etc.
 
 
 Anyone ever played with this or know if the Element has any support
 for setting the currently loaded profile pragmatically over the
 network?
 
 
 Thanks,
 Andy Sayler

Hi Andy,

according to our dealer you can switch slider inputs and outputs on the
elements console via gpio.
Inputs on the IQ and Radius consoles cannot but outputs can.
On the IQ and Radius inputs can be changed via the profiles buttons on
the console and pathfinder software.
Our dealers project engineer is looking into the pathfinder and
profiles.
Maybe a feature request where gpio could trigger pathfinder to change to
a preset profile on the console.
I'll get back when I get more info on this.

Thanks
Gary.

 Got some clarification from the folks at Axia about this.  The way this will

  Livewire channels in the sense that output channels on a node are.  (These 
 channels can, however, access up to twelve external Livewire streams via the

  gateway functionality).
 
 Making sense?
 
Fred would this be the same for the radius console?
The idea I had was if a dj put the wrong sat slider on over night it
could be remotely changed via a rdpannel button.
Or rivendell could switch the current vinblows system off via console
and do its thing.
It looks as though these Axia consoles aren't what I thought they were.

Thanks
Gary.

[RDD] USB joystick events

[Gary Hodder]

Hi all,

I bought a usb game pad joystick on Ebay $8 including postage.
It comes up as event5 and gives 10 gpi's according to rdgpimon.
After a reboot the device comes up as avent2.
Is there any way to make it the same event number so it doesn't have to
be reconfigured after a reboot?

My test machine at home is Opensuse 11.4 Riv 2.0.2 and jack.
The stations machine is rdappliance with Riv 2.0.2 and alsa.

Thanks
Gary.
